The year has passed and Ron has become used to being able to come to you with more and more complex finance and accounting questions about this Ukrainian Division.  He has come into your office in the middle of November of the following year. Your projects are going quite well as he has a new task for you.  He’s been reviewing the operations of the Ukrainian plant and has some questions about the Income Statement.  The plant appears to be much more profitable than the other bottling plants within the company and he’s wondering about implementing some of the practices that he has seen there into Canadian Bottling sites.  He has provided you with the Income Statement that the Canadian finance team has provided him and wants some key pieces of information from you.
